Your latest purchases, cont.

The lunch buffet at my favorite local Chinese restaurant, some groceries and dinner items and two new 3.75" figures from The Force Awakens.
 
Received my graphic novel from 1982 today, near *mint condition*, an ancient price-tag on it says 39,50 -which is a bit different from the 540,00 (excl. delivery) I had to pay.

(Note the name of the vehicle: SPA-G-10 -and you'll know how 10 is pronounced in Danish.)

There's quite a bit of Indiana Jones-inspiration going on as it's about a 'forgotten valley' in South America with a whole forgotten civilization, and there's a crime plot about a diamond that was stolen by a western pirate, then stolen back by the original owners, and a group of South American Nazis from Europe and a futuristic flying craft that must be manned by a 'hero', a 'professor' (or 'uncle') and a 'girl' (in the Flash Gordon style)...

As the inside of the cover says it is -the modern comic for men!:

Looney Tunes #91
Justice League America #100

Xenozoic Tales #2 (Kitchen Sink Comix)
Atlantis Rising #2 (Platinum Studios)
Red Sonja: She Devil with a Sword #0 (Dynamite, 2005)
Ms. Tree's Thrilling Detective Adventures #2 (Eclipse Comics)
GRRL Scouts Work Sucks #4 (Image Comics)
Tales of Darkness #2 (Image Comics)

Tom Judge: End of Days #1/Evo: Special Preview Edition (Top Cow/Image)
Tom Strong #34 (America's Best Comics)
Ninjak #24 (Valiant/Acclaim)

Captain Universe: Silver Surfer #1 (of 1)
Doctor Spectrum MAX #2
Avengers v3 #13
Fantastic Four v3 #27
Nick Fury: Agent of SHIELD v3 #40
Supreme Power (MAX) #4
Punisher v2 #62
Plasmer #3

Some cool and different stuff. The most interesting (in a weird way) is probably Punisher #62, the second (and final) part of a story where Punisher is believed killed, and so he has...stupid fake medical stuff done to him to make him look African American, and teams up with Luke Cage :wtf: This part of the story is called "Fade to White", and has him reverting to his normal appearance at the end. I'd heard of this story before, but now I own one half of it. I might have to go looking for #61 eventually, if only to have all of this completely WTF story :lol:
 
Went to a thrift store today and found:

Wheel of Fortune/Jeopardy Wii bundle (both in good shape)
Two books by Kathy Reichs (206 Bones and Bare Bones)
Three books by Michael Crichton (A Case of Need, Prey and Sphere)

And I got to go to a used game store. Saw a copy of Fire Emblem Shadow Dragon, Fire Emblem Radiant Dawn, Dot. Hack Part 1 Infection and Dot. Hack Part 4 Quarantine. Wanted to get them so bad :(.
 
Got a lot of goodies while in Williamsburg yesterday and today. A gorgeous Fossil purse and two Build-a-Bear outfits at an outlet, and some cute souvenirs in the historic district.

I had to order additional Build-A-Bear stuff- a wig to go with one outfit, and a mini Black Widow bear! :)

Cute! I like your family theme -- three of the four cars I've ever bought have been red. Btw, that old thing about red cars getting more tickets is not true.
